WCG Iran aren’t happy about the limitation, but stated that if they do not comply, the event will be banned and nobody will be playing League of Legends at all. LoL as a game is banned in Iran, so even being allowed to play under these limitations is considered a small victory.

Not trying to defend what is clearly a secretarian and an all round rather stupid decision, but maybe if developers started clothing/arming female characters with consideration for their safety on the field of battle we’d stop running into these problems.

This sounds like just plain sexism rather than an objection to revealing outfits. Tristana? Diana, Leona? Lulu? Kayle? Seriously? If you don’t know League then take a look at these and ask whether these characters are wearing revealing outfits and take note these aren’t the only ones that aren’t super revealing, yes there are plenty of revealing characters but they’re not the ones being singled out here, it’s female characters in general.
